The Campaign Walk-throughs

What follows is reconnaissance data designed to see you through every campaign scenario in the Brood War, broken across the three campaigns and by individual mission. You will be provided with as little or as much information as you need on a mission-per-mission basis. Note, however, that most scenarios are very flexible, and you can complete your objectives in a variety of ways. So keep in mind that each walk-through represents but a single thoroughly tested solution to a problem. Each walk-through contains four pieces of information that are designed to be increasingly useful in assisting you with your task. They are the following:

Overview: This is a concise description of your mission objective. Because your superiors' mission briefings tend not to be entirely accurate or clear, this information offers a more lucid alternative and will help you to better understand what you must accomplish over the course of the mission.

Possible Expansions: A steady flow of resources is imperative to your success in virtually every scenario. This section of the walk-through will provide you with detailed information on every available resource patch in your vicinity, including their locations, whether they are defended, and when you may wish to build an auxiliary base in the vicinity. If you find yourself running low on resources during a mission, look to this data for a resource patch you might have missed.

Key Points: This section offers specific hints and advice on your particular situation, including how to cope with any technological restrictions to your military, and what you can expect from the enemy. Whereas the Overview section provides a macrocosmic view of the forthcoming battle, this section offers a more minute description of how to handle specific circumstances within the mission.

Walk-through: Here you will be provided with thorough instructions on how to complete the mission. Although your ability to manage your forces will factor heavily in the outcome of your attempts, these step-by-step directions will tilt the odds in your favor. The walk-through complements the three preceding sections and will provide a contingency plan when the preceding information is not sufficient.
